Wedded Bliss

After 26 years of a very happy marriage I still think I'm the luckiest man alive.

A personal message of thanks to my wife Sinead.

Today we celebrate 26 years of marriage. An incredible journey for both of us, now having spent half our lives in wedded bliss.

Anyone married that long can tell you it’s not always easy. Life serves both honey and lemons to consume along the way and that’s cool when everything is sweet but the real tests comes during tougher times.

I’ve been incredibly fortunate to weather whatever storms have come my way with an incredible life partner and friend.  Whatever success there is in my life, is because there have been two of us pulling in the same direction.

I have no secrets to impart on how to have a successful and happy marriage – aside from saying marry the right person, which I clearly did.

Sinead though has more prescriptive advice she once shared with a journalist. She claims that the reason we have such a successful marriage is because we are both in love with the same man!

Harsh but maybe just a little bit true.

So thanks baby for 26 wonderful years. The next 26 years will be even better!
